* Now these are the names of the tribes : from the north end , beside the way of Hethlon to the entrance of Hamath , Hazar-enan , at the border of Damascus , northward , beside Hamath ; and they shall have their sides east and west : Dan , one portion . * And by the border of Dan , from the east side unto the west side : Asher , one portion . * And by the border of Asher , from the east side even unto the west side : Naphtali , one portion . * And by the border of Naphtali , from the east side unto the west side : Manasseh , one portion . * And by the border of Manasseh , from the east side unto the west side : Ephraim , one portion . * And by the border of Ephraim , from the east side even unto the west side : Reuben , one portion . * And by the border of Reuben , from the east side unto the west side : Judah , one portion . * And by the border of Judah , from the east side unto the west side , shall be the offering which ye shall set aside , five and twenty thousand reeds in breadth , and in length as one of the portions , from the east side unto the west side ; and the sanctuary shall be in the midst of it . * The offering that ye shall set apart unto the LORD shall be five and twenty thousand reeds in length , and ten thousand in breadth . * And for these , even for the priests , shall be the holy offering ; toward the north five and twenty thousand in length , and toward the west ten thousand in breadth , and toward the east ten thousand in breadth , and toward the south five and twenty thousand in length ; and the sanctuary of the LORD shall be in the midst thereof . * The sanctified portion shall be for the priests of the sons of Zadok , that have kept My charge , that went not astray when the children of Israel went astray , as the Levites went astray . * And it shall be unto them a portion set apart from the offering of the land , a thing most holy , by the border of the Levites . * And answerable unto the border of the priests , the Levites shall have five and twenty thousand in length , and ten thousand in breadth ; all the length shall be five and twenty thousand , and the breadth ten thousand . * And they shall not sell of it , nor exchange , nor alienate the first portion of the land ; for it is holy unto the LORD . * And the five thousand that are left in the breadth , in front of the five and twenty thousand , shall be for common use , for the city , for dwelling and for open land ; and the city shall be in the midst thereof . * And these shall be the measures thereof : the north side four thousand and five hundred , and the south side four thousand and five hundred , and on the east side four thousand and five hundred , and the west side four thousand and five hundred . * And the city shall have open land : toward the north two hundred and fifty , and toward the south two hundred and fifty , and toward the east two hundred and fifty , and toward the west two hundred and fifty . * And the residue in the length , answerable unto the holy offering , shall be ten thousand eastward , and ten thousand westward ; and it shall be answerable unto the holy offering ; and the increase thereof shall be for food unto them that serve the city . * And they that serve the city , out of all the tribes of Israel , shall till it . * All the offering shall be five and twenty thousand by five and twenty thousand ; ye shall set apart the holy offering foursquare , with the possession of the city . * And the residue shall be for the prince , on the one side and on the other of the holy offering and of the possession of the city , in front of the five and twenty thousand of the offering toward the east border , and westward in front of the five and twenty thousand toward the west border , answerable unto the portions , it shall be for the prince ; and the holy offering and the sanctuary of the house shall be in the midst thereof . * Thus the possession of the Levites , and the possession of the city , shall be in the midst of that which is the prince 's ; between the border of Judah and the border of Benjamin shall be the prince 's . * And as for the rest of the tribes : from the east side unto the west side : Benjamin , one portion . * And by the border of Benjamin , from the east side unto the west side : Simeon , one portion . * And by the border of Simeon , from the east side unto the west side : Issachar , one portion . * And by the border of Issachar , from the east side unto the west side : Zebulun , one portion . * And by the border of Zebulun , from the east side unto the west side : Gad , one portion . * And by the border of Gad , at the south side southward , the border shall be even from Tamar unto the waters of Meribath - kadesh , to the Brook , unto the Great Sea . * This is the land which ye shall divide by lot unto the tribes of Israel for inheritance , and these are their portions , saith the Lord GOD . * And these are the goings out of the city : on the north side four thousand and five hundred reeds by measure ; * and the gates of the city shall be after the names of the tribes of Israel ; three gates northward : the gate of Reuben , one ; the gate of Judah , one ; the gate of Levi , one ; * and at the east side four thousand and five hundred reeds ; and three gates : even the gate of Joseph , one ; the gate of Benjamin , one ; the gate of Dan , one ; * and at the south side four thousand and five hundred reeds by measure ; and three gates : the gate of Simeon , one ; the gate of Issachar , one ; the gate of Zebulun , one ; * at the west side four thousand and five hundred reeds , with their three gates : the gate of Gad , one ; the gate of Asher , one ; the gate of Naphtali , one . * It shall be eighteen thousand reeds round about . And the name of the city from that day shall be , The LORD is there .'
